I just watched 'License to Drive" with Cory Haim. Brilliant. I am Cory Feldman in that film by the way.
I also liked:
- Vamp.
- Weekend at Bernies.
- Weird Science.
- Lost Boys.
- Breakfast Club.
- Ferris Buellers day off.
- Dream Machine.
- Class
- and sixteen candles.
- Heathers
- Kuffs
- and that other one with Christian Slater and the pirate radio.
In fact every movie since has been rubbish...It's amazing how much these movie influenced me. Weird. Anyway... am I alone?

She was in some film I saw recently naked as the day she was born. She has lost a lot of weight though since he x-files days.
